Join Us!

The East Bay Recorder Society (EBRS) is an association of recorder enthusiasts in the San Francisco Bay area. Recorder players from beginning to advanced levels are invited to join, to play music together and to learn more about the recorder with a different professional conductor each month (September-May or June).

Our 2023/2024 season membership form is uploaded to our "Join Us!" page. However, it is our usual policy that if you wish to attend for a first time as a non-member, it is free (with a charge for additional monthly or special meetings thereafter until you join).

Monthly Playing & Special Events

For our new 2023/2024 season three of our special events have been planned as shown on the "special" page. (The January 7th playing session is both a special event as well as a monthly playing session.)

We have been requiring at-home Covid testing the day of the playing, and if possible, asking that you bring your NEGATIVE test to the event in a zipped baggie, or a date-stamped photo otherwise. Of course, positive tests STAY HOME, as well as if you have symptoms of any illness.
